I'm not sure, but they've become associated with baseball and Americana.

I am disgusted by Hotdogs. Oh, OK. They're also called frankfurters and wieners. I had a friend who used to do inspections in hot dog manufacturing facilities and he said to never eat one.  What are they made of anyway?
The hot dog became closely associated with baseball and American culture.
Я испытываю отвращение к хот-догам. О, хорошо. Их еще называют сосисками и сарделечками сардельками. У меня был друг, который проводил инспекции на предприятиях по производству хот-догов, и он посоветовал мне никогда их не есть.  Из чего они вообще сделаны?
Хот-дог стал тесно ассоциироваться с бейсболом и американской культурой.
